EnviroAtlas Tree Cover Configuration and Connectivity, Water Background Web Service

Published by U.S. EPA Office of Research & Development (ORD) - National Exposure Research Laboratory (NERL) | U.S. Environmental Protection Agency | Catalog Last Checked: May 06, 2026 at 12:02 AM | Dataset Last Updated: October 05, 2016 at 12:00 AM
This EnviroAtlas web service supports research and online mapping activities related to EnviroAtlas (https://www.epa.gov/enviroatlas). The 1-meter resolution tree cover configuration and connectivity map categorizes tree cover into structural elements (e.g. core, edge, connector, etc.). Source imagery varies by community. For specific information about methods and accuracy of each community's tree cover configuration and connectivity classification, consult their individual metadata records: Austin, TX (https://edg.epa.gov/metadata/catalog/search/resource/details.page?uuid=%7B29D2B039-905C-4825-B0B4-9315122D6A9F%7D); Birmingham, AL (https://edg.epa.gov/metadata/catalog/search/resource/details.page?uuid=%7Bc1b9998a-d2b4-4036-8a93-8e747edabafb%7D); Cleveland, OH (https://edg.epa.gov/metadata/catalog/search/resource/details.page?uuid=%7B03cd54e1-4328-402e-ba75-e198ea9fbdc7%7D); Des Moines, IA (https://edg.epa.gov/metadata/catalog/search/resource/details.page?uuid=%7B350A83E6-10A2-4D5D-97E6-F7F368D268BB%7D); Durham, NC (https://edg.epa.gov/metadata/catalog/search/resource/details.page?uuid=%7BC337BA5F-8275-4BA8-9647-F63C443F317D%7D); Fresno, CA (https://edg.epa.gov/metadata/catalog/search/resource/details.page?uuid=%7B84B98749-9C1C-4679-AE24-9B9C0998EBA5%7D); Green Bay, WI (https://edg.epa.gov/metadata/catalog/search/resource/details.page?uuid=%7B69E48A44-3D30-4E84-A764-38FBDCCAC3D0%7D); Memphis, TN (https://edg.epa.gov/metadata/catalog/search/resource/details.page?uuid=%7BB7313ADA-04F7-4D80-ABBA-77E753AAD002%7D); Milwaukee, WI (https://edg.epa.gov/metadata/catalog/search/resource/details.page?uuid=%7B743BCDE5-141B-414F-B85B-1E9C16B08EA5%7D); Minneapolis/St. Paul, MN (https://edg.epa.gov/metadata/catalog/search/resource/details.page?uuid=%7Bd318bfd0-f319-4c96-a71a-ebd5b4cdc679%7D); New Bedford, MA (https://edg.epa.gov/metadata/catalog/search/resource/details.page?uuid=%7B7230F45E-5C9A-4A81-A4CC-A554F820A5E6%7D); New Haven, CT (https://edg.epa.gov/metadata/catalog/search/resource/details.page?uuid=%7Bc67a0a5e-8f67-4685-b6c7-851bf21d90f1%7D); New York, NY (https://edg.epa.gov/metadata/catalog/search/resource/details.page?uuid=%7BB893D495-6F44-4712-9189-EF3A05E77AE9%7D); Phoenix, AZ (https://edg.epa.gov/metadata/catalog/search/resource/details.page?uuid=%7BCAD428A6-C9B6-4C86-AAF4-95A79B1FF3F9%7D); Pittsburgh, PA (https://edg.epa.gov/metadata/catalog/search/resource/details.page?uuid=%7BA6BB21AA-E4AA-4C14-B6F0-E37370E0DDBE%7D); Portland, ME (https://edg.epa.gov/metadata/catalog/search/resource/details.page?uuid=%7B8FF72C94-A9F3-4DD5-AE38-47DD43B085FF%7D); Paterson, NJ (https://edg.epa.gov/metadata/catalog/search/resource/details.page?uuid=%7B5D33A6D9-7B3F-41E9-9A3A-CA7A2A9C49B8%7D); Portland, OR (https://edg.epa.gov/metadata/catalog/search/resource/details.page?uuid=%7B1A8D398F-7E21-4717-BCAC-CC232F3CED33%7D); Tampa, FL (https://edg.epa.gov/metadata/catalog/search/resource/details.page?uuid=%7B864118E7-7E57-4F1D-810D-A71D37C82DB2%7D); and Woodbine, IA (https://edg.epa.gov/metadata/catalog/search/resource/details.page?uuid=%7B5F3D2255-6EC8-437A-9DA5-82025680ED34%7D). This dataset was produced by the US EPA to support research and online mapping activities related to EnviroAtlas. EnviroAtlas (https://www.epa.gov/enviroatlas) allows the user to interact with a web-based, easy-to-use, mapping application to view and analyze multiple ecosystem services for the contiguous United States. The dataset is available as downloadable data (https://edg.epa.gov/data/Public/ORD/EnviroAtlas) or as an EnviroAtlas map service. Additional descriptive information about each attribute in this dataset can be found in its associated EnviroAtlas Fact Sheet (https://www.epa.gov/enviroatlas/enviroatlas-fact-sheets).
